Hexanoic acid, 2-oxo-, sodium salt (1:1)

Description:

Hexanoic acid, 2-oxo-, sodium salt (1:1), also known as sodium 2-oxohexanoate, is a sodium salt derived from hexanoic acid, which is a medium-chain fatty acid. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white solid or powder and is soluble in water due to the presence of the sodium ion, which enhances its hydrophilicity. It is characterized by its carboxylate functional group, which imparts acidic properties, and the keto group, which contributes to its reactivity and potential applications in various chemical reactions. Hexanoic acid derivatives are often used in the food industry, pharmaceuticals, and as intermediates in organic synthesis. The compound may exhibit antimicrobial properties and can be involved in metabolic processes. Safety data indicates that, like many sodium salts, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Overall, its unique structure and properties make it a valuable compound in both industrial and research settings.
